FMQ 504 I'm Stupid I don't understand -They're stupid they don't understand me
“I’m Stupid — I Don’t Understand / They’re Stupid — They Don’t Understand Me”
Another Five-Minute Quickie for those deeper musings…
Ever thought “they just don’t get me” or “I must be thick because I don’t get them”? Here’s a fresh lens: The meaning of your communication is the response you get — a golden presupposition of NLP.
In this episode, we dive into:
-
Why it’s your responsibility to be understood
-
How feeling misunderstood (or stupid) is a communication challenge, not a personal flaw
-
Simple ways to change the way you speak so your message lands
-
A mindset shift to stop blaming others (or yourself) when communication fails
-
The power of reflection and “musing over a G&T” to grow your emotional intelligence
If you’ve ever felt unheard or misjudged, this episode is your 10-minute reframe.

So back with another five minute quickie slowdown, lovely. And it's another presupposition of NLP.
A useful assumption. And what's it going to be about? Forget the NLP bit, it's neuro-linguistic programming. I love the funny thing.
